Heartland Festival Parade

At the last minute, we decided to get dressed and watch the parade. I took my new camera as I'm still trying to learn how to use it. Gehrig enjoyed watching the parade with Olivia and Reese. He got so excited over the Kosair cars, the train and the Disney characters. It was wonderful to see how excited he got.

Gehrig's 3rd Birthday

This year we had a smaller party with immediate family and Gehrig's friends at KY Railway Museum. The party included a train ride and free admission to the museum and model train center. The car we were given was air-conditioned with cushioned seats. The staff had it all decorated. It was better than I had even anticipated. Gehrig and all the attendees appeared to really enjoy the day.

Our Beach Vacation

Gehrig, my friend, Bonnie and I went to Murrells Inlet, SC for a vacation and to visit my cousins, Scott and Tyler Howell. This was our first trip to South Carolina and it was beautiful! Gehrig really enjoyed playing at the beach. He loved making roads and castles in the sand and enjoyed jumping the ocean waves. We visited some historical sites in the area. Most of all I had a nice visit with Scott and Tyler.

The Wedding

Gehrig and John were in Cousin Mark Galvin's wedding on Saturday, July 18. My boys were so handsome. It was a beautiful wedding! And we had a wonderful time at the reception at the Brown Hotel.

Reese - Gehrig Play Time

Cousin Time

Friday night, July 10, Cousins Reese and Ramsey came to our house to play. It was so cute to watch Gehrig and Reese "pretending" to be a family who goes to school with their baby (one of my old baby dolls). Then, Reese pretended to be a cheerleader while Gehrig played baseball! Reese took some good camera shots, which I will post on here. Ramsey is such happy, laid back baby - she just enjoys watching the action. We hope to have cousin time again soon!

Holiday World

Gehrig and I went to Holiday World with my friend, Susan and her son, Jaxson. The boys played so well together for two long days! We rode some rides and played in the splash park. We were blessed with two beautiful days!
